This paper proposes a novel framework called FineMolTex for molecular graph-text pre-training that jointly learns coarse-grained molecule-level knowledge and fine-grained motif-level knowledge. The framework consists of two tasks: contrastive alignment for coarse-grained matching and masked multi-modal modeling for fine-grained matching, which predicts the labels of masked motifs and words. This approach enables FineMolTex to understand fine-grained matching between motifs and words, demonstrating significant improvements in text-based molecule editing task with up to 238% better performance. The framework’s ability to capture fine-grained knowledge makes it a valuable tool for applications like drug discovery and catalyst design.

FineMolTex is a new way to learn about molecules and their properties. Right now, computer models only look at the whole molecule, not the smaller parts that are important too. These small parts, called motifs, can tell us things about the molecule’s behavior. The FineMolTex framework learns two types of information: what makes up the whole molecule and what each motif does. By combining this knowledge, FineMolTex gets really good at predicting how molecules will behave in different situations. It even does better than before on tasks like editing molecule designs! This could be super helpful for scientists working on new medicines or materials.
